Whales
Is anybody of you aware that we consider hunting down whales one of the greatest things that can happen to your cities?

They are worth much effort. They will many times dictate where I build a city. But accomplishing a sustained yield harvest over 6,000 years!  now thats a challenge!!!!

It's rumored that the whales are hunting the humans and are the cause of the sinking Trireme Syndrome.

------------------

Ming, I've searched the world over many many times looking for the elusive Quatro-Whale city location... The best I've found yet is 3 whales. Must the 4 be on a very small island, or skinny peninsula? How could the 4 whale pattern be found on a continental costal city?

Whales often appear in lakes and inland seas.

Go to the big world map. Ellesmere Island in the Northwest Territories of Canada often has four whales.
